‘Total Recall’ Teaser Trailer Offers Colin Farrell Dodging Explosions

It’s been 22 years since Arnold Schwarzenegger starred in the original ‘Total Recall.’ While that should make some readers feel old, it also means an appropriate amount of time has passed for a remake.

We’ve just got the first look of said remake, which stars Colin Farrell and Kate Beckinsale, whose husband, Len Wiseman, directs. Jessica Biel, Bryan Cranston and Ethan Hawke are also along for the futuristic ride. Check out the teaser trailer below.

‘Total Recall’ is based on the Phillip K. Dick short story ‘We Can Remember It For You Wholesale.’ While Schwarzenegger’s ‘Total Recall’ takes place on Mars, this one keeps the action on our home planet.

While the 30 second teaser doesn’t give much away, it makes sure to establish that memory implementation will still be an important part of the plot. The full-length trailer debuts on April 1st during the Boston Celtics/Miami Heat game on ABC, and the movie hits theaters August 3rd. Do you think this ‘Total Recall’ can measure up to the original?
